Personal review

Como todos los juegos de Edmund Mcmullen, tiene una estética bellamente grotesca.

Un plataformas interesante, donde manejas una bola de brea enamorada de una chica llamada Brea mientras bajas por las alcantarillas mediante tu habilidad de adherirte a toda superficie, unos cuantos saltos y deslizamientos y chafando todo se te interponga.

Muy recomendable, el ser de manejo raro y garrido es una de sus virtudes, además de una gran banda sonora.

Life isn't easy when you're a 12 pound ball of tar.

You can make GISH sticky, slick, heavy, and somewhat alter his shape to jump, overcome enemies and obstacles. GISH, Gameplay and the environment is entirely based as on physics and are destructible. 57 levels, plus secret levels.

There is also a 2 player verses mode in 5 hostile environments. 2 balls of tar can't really hurt each other, but if one of 'em falls into a lake of lava, touches an open flame, or gets squished under a anvil, that's gonna hurt.

Requires Win98+, AMD/Intel 1GHz, 256MB RAM, 32MB OpenGL card. Recomended 4-button gamepad.

This game has won multiple awards:
2005 IGF Grand Prize (Seamus McNally Award)
2005 IGF Innovation in Game Design
Game Tunnel's Game of the Year
Game Tunnel's Adventure Game of the Year
Home of the Underdogs Top Dog
2004 IGF Finalist
